I veryfied emacs-21.2.95 this with the latest cygwin release and I could reproduce this on my system too. I was able to compile emacs too with the latest cygwin 'gcc version 2.95.3-10 (cygwin special)', but the problem still exists: cl pops up a "Abort, Retry or Ignore" Dialog. Compiler | State ----------------------------------+----------------- gcc 2.95.3-10 (cygwin special) | fails with cl.el gcc 3.2 20020927 (prerelease) | fails with cl.el gcc 2.95.3-6 (mingw special) | okay msvc | okay With the emacs head version I get by executing the "M-: (require 'cl)" lisp function the following backtrace: ,---- | Debugger entered--Lisp error: (invalid-read-syntax ". in wrong context") | cl-random-time() | byte-code("...") | require(cl) | eval((require (quote cl))) | eval-expression((require (quote cl)) nil) | * call-interactively(eval-expression) `---- I am cc'ing this too to the cygwin mailing list, maybe someone has an idea what the problem caused.

So hopefully the patch is soon included into cvs. Thanks for your fast reply.
